31 The quality of the homes are horrible. I was so scared to buy an Allen Edwin home and now I know that I should have listened to my gut. The insulation is horrible. Walls unfinished. Installation done improperly. Siding issues. Garage door issues. It is not a home that will last forever but...
Dan Molnar tested me shortly after I messaged through Angie's list. Very courteous. Within a few days i had a quote that was better than I had expected. A little over 4 weeks later and everything is done and to a level of quality that honestly exceeded my expectations. The crew who did the...
I had a small leak in my basement and contacted Heaven Scent which came into my home and did such a poor job and damaged my personal property. Heaven Scent came to do a very small job and ended up damaging personal property and then upon showing the owner Keith Polasky he became beligerent....
Jeff designed a custom bannister for my stairs. The stairs are narrow and steep and had to accommodate a particular person. He drew up the design, explained the details thoroughly, answered all my questions, and delivered and installed his handmade bannister on time and within the estimate....
Started out with a sales lady that was very professional and knowledgeable, but quickly turned ugly when the crew showed up. The crew left our roof unfinished one evening and it downpoured that night leaving us with a flooded house. The (so called) crew and a GM of Hansons came out the next...
We had our sump pump fail during a heavy rain, and we came home at 8pm to find half of our unfinished basement flooded. We called several providers and Dan Wood was the only one that could make it out that night. When the serviceman arrived at 11:30pm that night, he quoted us $1100 to...
Dan Wood CompanyAt the beginning of the year the decision was made to get our house ready to move my mother-in-law in. You would think that the first person we would have contacted would be a contractor. Not in this case, based on the great experiences we've had with Joe Kerns/Dependable Plumbing and certain...
The work itself is excellent and I am extremely pleased with the Powers System results. Because I had to call a couple of times to see about scheduling, I gave a B on responsiveness. No doubt the popularity of the construction and number of jobs can delay installation dates. The remodeler...

Generally, general contractors charge between $50 and $150 hourly, though not every contractor charges by the hour. If charging based on the project, you can expect a markup of 10% to 20% of the construction cost. You can expect to pay between $300 and $500 daily if charged by the day.
General contractors are the ones that coordinate home construction projects. They are in charge of the day-to-day oversight of the subcontractors to ensure that the project is completed on time and to resolve problems as they arise. General contractors:
Complete pre-construction planning, both with the customer and crew
Provide realistic cost estimates
Develop construction timelines
Ensure deadlines are met
Acquire permits as needed
Purchase supplies and materials
Before hiring a general contractor for your home project, it’s a great idea to write down a list of questions to discuss with each prospect. Some example questions to get you started include:
Which types of insurance do you carry?
Can you provide a list of references?
What is the expected timeline for this project?
How will my project be supervised?
Will you hire subcontractors for the job?
What is the best way to communicate changes?
Will you obtain all of the required building permits?
While city and state laws vary on general contractor licensing requirements, hiring an unlicensed general contractor could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local general contractor guidelines for your area.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
Yes, most general contractors require a down payment for project completion. A reasonable down payment for a contractor is 10% to 25% of the total project cost, though that will vary based on project size and location. The down payment helps cover the upfront costs of materials and permits and helps ensure payment for the project at hand.
